    Obsessed with these. Been having 2 every night the past two weeks. Way better than the field roast mini corn dogs. They taste like ball park corn dogs I used to eat as a kid. I actually microwave them because I prefer them soft to crunchy like they get in the air fryer. Dipped in spicy mustard. y2ysbqa814hc.jpeg

    Used the leftover whey from skyr making to bake a loaf of bread. It was delish!!!!!

    Used the skyr and the new toy to make apple pie ice cream:

    2 servings homemade skyr
    1 can apple pie filling
    Cinnamon
    1 tbsp whipping cream
    2 smashed graham cracker sheets
    1 individual tub Mott’s Apple sauce (because it would take me a year to go through a whole jar)

    Made 4 servings @240 apiece. Everyone was smacking their lips.

    Up tomorrow: Sorta Colada Sorbet
    2 mooshed ripe bananas
    Large can mandarin oranges, partially drained
    Jordan’s coconut syrup

    2 Servings about 210/each.

    I’m obsessed with this Ninja Creami gadget. And I can eat ice cream any time I want? And it’s healthy and good for me? Did I die and go to heaven?!!!


    PS: the 1 tbsp whipping cream is because ice cream apparently needs fat and/or sugar in order to “cream” well. Someone online experimented and said 2.5gr per pint was optimal for her. That’s half a tablespoon per pint, hence a tbsp spread over four half pint servings.

    “New Me” is perfectly happy with half a pint. Now if only I could be the same with tortilla chips. *sigh*

    Peanut butter 😬

    yes...seems I have always 'obsessed' over this one...

    the struggle is real🙃

    ^^^☆☆Yes the struggle is REALLY REAL!! ☆☆^^^😂

    I got Lantano powdered peanut butter( monk fruit no sugar) I mix with sugar free maple, almond milk, glucomannan powder( fiber root also called Konjak that shiritaki is often made from) I super vumize it and use Good Good sugar free preserves on rice cake or Carbonite gluten free bread.

    This dressing is soooo good! It tastes like super creamy high calorie Italian but only 30 calories. Love the cauliflower because it gives it that creaminess. Perfect amount of tang. 6jv9q96ewx50.jpeg

    I love the Madras Lentils in the multipack at Costco. They are so easy to make (60 seconds in the microwave) and I can eat them solo or with a piece of pita or a bit of rice. I have a small baby now and I need food that is somewhat healthy and quick to make. I also like the Morningstar Buffalo Chik’n Patties. So easy.

    I’ve been into snacky foods a lot lately. Cheese and crackers, pickled things, salami, etc. I’ve been eating like a toddler the last week lol

    Walmart great value chunky salsa. It is just SOOO good I have been eating it by the spoonful. I know it's weird that super cheap salsa tastes so good to me. It just has this wonderfully salty/vinegary/banana peppery flavor to it that I can't get enough of!

    Way better than fresh salsa or any of the expensive brands that I used to buy.

    So these are all from a vegan restaurant here called Ka Papa, we have gone there a couple times but it is super expensive. I have been CRAVING thier food lately EXPECIALLY the risotto stuffed pepper and vegan crab cakes! The other pictures are broccoli mash and beefless crumbles.

    This has me interested. What's the consistency of this stuff? It's it chewy like oats or more crunchy and light like rice crispies? I'm hoping chewy, lol.

    More like puffed wheat - more crispier - more 'toothsome' than rice crispies (which are fairy light). One would not 'cook' these (like oatmeal).

    I too love the consistency/chewiness of oatmeal - I've even eaten it raw and enjoyed 😂

    That Thai looks amazing and yes, raw oatmeal right here. 🙋🏻‍♀️

    After a week in another state, I am obsessed with my faucet.

    Nothing tastes better, or, strangely, sweeter, than water from home. Especially clear water that doesn’t have muck floating about in it.

    Cheers! 🍻 <<<water glasses there

    They are exactly like honey smacks but without the honey if you know what those are. ce44t5vaasdj.png

    I’m on a chili kick myself. It’s great to take to work with a little shredded cheese, hot sauce, and my special addition, the one that makes it so dang tasty — cheese and garlic croutons. It adds such a nice crunch and flavor to it. So warm and cozy for winter days.

    Also loving Nugo bars. Haven’t had a bad flavor yet! They’re dessert for me.

    Been obsessed with this.. xcgvtpbhzquz.png

    Way better than plain franks hot sauce. I like that it isn't very spicy (I hate the spiciness of franks, but love the flavor so this is perfect for me). I have been going through a bottle every 2 days lately..... just have been pouring it on everything like chicken nuggets, dinner, salads, veggies, pretty much everything I eat. (Except fruit)

    @Noreenmarie1234 - while I also love hot sauces (have 7 different ones in use right now!!!) that may be an awful lot of salt consumed in 2 days.
    For fruit like apples, pineapple, pears and so on, we season with 'Tajin with lime' a powder used frequently in Mexico as well as Chamoy mild sauce, also a Tajin product.

    Oh it is!! I have over 13k sodium per day. *hides*

    Even before the hot sauce obsession I am around 10k a day. I’ve been eating this way my whole life so I think my body has grown accustomed to handling the salt lol. I am lucky I don’t have to limit it due to high bp or heart issues because I just loveeee my sodium.

    I have high sodium, mainly because of jerky, baking powder, chicken sausage and deli sandwich meat.

    But I think some of us need it because we sweat a lot of sodium out.

    I can tell when I’m dehydrated or lacking sodium by the fine pleated wrinkles on my upper inner arms, and when it’s really bad, cloudy, um, you know, urine. 😬

    Sorry to bring that up in a food obsession thread, but high sodium isn’t necessarily bad all the time.

    It’s interesting how we start to learn our body’s cues when we actually pay attention.

    This hot and sour soup - made a few changes, less oil, no fried wonton strips, no bamboo shoots, used white mushrooms, only 2-3 drops of sesame oil in each bowl and used 2 bouillon cubes for 8 cups water.

    Quite low in calories, imo, and delicious!

    I have been hospitalized 3 times for LOW SODIUM! Yay I am supposed to eat salt but gosh wish I found out differently!

    These chicken tenders. Best brand I’ve ever had. I prefer them to Tyson and Purdue. I like them because the breading is super thick and super crunchy and the chicken is so juicy and not chewy.

    So good shaken in a container with franks buffalo sauce and dipped in ranch. Been eating these every day for last week. vxl6rbpbc4vu.jpeg

    @Noreenmarie1234 i was thinking about you last night.

    I made the pumpkin pudding into ice cream. I loved it. Velvety texture.

    Husband, not so much, though. So I guess I’ll be making single serves of that next time lol.
